Assuming you are using a .tac file, you might do something like this in
"application.tac":
from twisted.application import service, strports
import mycode
application = service.Application('myapp')
services = service.IServiceCollection(application)
# do startup code here
mycode.doStartupStuff()
site = mycode.site()
web = strports.service('tcp:80', site)
web.setServiceParent(services)
...then run the "tac" file with:
twistd -oy application.tac
...this is such a simple solution that I guess you are having more basic
misunderstandings.

What does this mean?

Have you read the finger tutorial from start to end, and understood it?

http://twistedmatrix.com/projects/core/documentation/howto/application.html
...describes the contents of a ".tac" file, the recommended way to use
twistd. If you could be more specific about *what* you don't understand,
what you've tried already, why it didn't work and with what error
messages, I can perhaps be more helpful.
